Projector problem I have a Sony vpl-x600 projector, I recently brought a new lamp and replaced it, however it has not solved the problem of :- the boarder of a greener colour to the rest of the picture, and a bluer colour inside the boarder of green. At a guess I'd say that the LCD unit has blown but that is just a guess. I figured I'd ask someone who knows what they are talking about.

If replacing the lamp did not fix the problem, I would suggest to check the cables that bring the video from a computer or any other device that you are connecting to the projector.
Also try to hook up a DVD player using the video output from the DVD to the video input on your projector.
Good Luck.
